What is Faith Build?
Faith Build is a program by Habitat for Humanity that allows faith groups to build safe, affordable housing for families in need.
Faith Build is based on the belief that faith should be put into action by serving others and loving one another.
Why Faith Build?
- Put your faith into action by demonstrating your faith through service to others
- Build community and fellowship within your faith group
- Engage new people to become a part of your faith community
- Strengthen your own faith and spiritual life as you empower others through shelter
- Demonstrate your faith community’s commitment to love and justice

Meet the Homeowner:
Meet Latrese!
Approved for the Homeownership in 2022, Latrese has dreamed of being a homeowner for many years. When she was approved for the program, Latrese was residing in an apartment that was harmful to her health due to mold issues. As a cancer survivor, Latrese cannot afford to live in an unsafe home and risk additional medical scares.
The 2025 Faith Build will not only help Latrese realize her dream of homeownership, but it will also show her daughters that all things are possible and their dreams can come true!
